Audit in 60 days — sound familiar?

  • PII stored in plain BSON fields — Customer email, phone, payment-token fields in clear text; Atlas Encryption-at-Rest covers disk but not query-level — auditor wants Field-Level Encryption (CSFLE).
  • SCRAM-SHA-1 still enabled — Legacy SCRAM-SHA-1 auth still permitted; old drivers prevent the upgrade to SCRAM-SHA-256 only, but auditor flagged the weak hashing.
  • Atlas IP allowlist set to 0.0.0.0/0 — Either "allow all" for dev convenience that never got tightened, or the VPC peering never completed and someone left the back-door open.

Fixed-scope, 2-week delivery

MongoDB Security Audit — CIS Benchmark, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2

Production MongoDB security audit covering Queryable Encryption (CSFLE), x.509 auth, field-level encryption, Atlas Encryption at Rest. Written report with severity-ranked findings, compliance-framework control mapping, and a 12-month remediation roadmap. Designed for teams preparing for PCI-DSS v4.0, HIPAA, or SOC 2 Type II audit windows.

What We Audit

12 control areas, fully assessed

Every audit covers these MongoDB-specific controls. Findings are severity-ranked (Critical / High / Medium / Low) with remediation effort estimates and compliance-framework mapping.

Client-Side Field-Level Encryption (CSFLE) / Queryable Encryption
x.509 client certificate authentication
Atlas Encryption-at-Rest with customer KMS key
Atlas Network Peering + Private Link (no 0.0.0.0/0)
SCRAM-SHA-256 only (SCRAM-SHA-1 disabled)
Built-in role + custom-role least-privilege review
Database Auditing (Atlas: Audit Logs to S3 / CloudWatch)
Atlas Data API access-list + bearer-token rotation
Free-monitoring opt-out for sensitive deployments
Backup encryption (Atlas Continuous Backup + KMS)
$jsonSchema validation for input sanitization
Atlas IP access list + VPC SG audit

Compliance Mapping

Every finding mapped to a framework

The audit report includes a control-mapping matrix so your compliance team can hand it directly to an auditor without re-translating the findings.
